14.10. Summary

This chapter does not only introduce the Fuzzy Logic Toolbox of MATLAB and the commands therein but also describes the essential theoretical concepts of Fuzzy Logic Systems. The chapter is summarized as follows:

  • First, the advantages of Fuzzy Logic are discussed and then the fuzzy concepts are clarified using an example of a washing machine.

  • The basics of fuzzy theory, linguistic variables, fuzzy sets and their MFs are described.

  • The fuzzy and binary operations are compared.

  • The manner in which knowledge is represented in fuzzy systems through If-Then rulebase is described using well-illustrated examples. The concept of rule matrix is also given.

  • Complete FIS components, including fuzzification of input variables, application of fuzzy ...
